We got a warm and friendly welcome as soon as we entered the bar. Although the pub is traditional and in a perfect setting by the canal it clearly needs updating as did our room. The benches are rotting away and the exterior is in need of a general tidy up. Our room was very dated and the beds old and uncomfortable. The bathroom was an adequate size though the shower was mouldy and hardly any hot water. We had to go back to the bar area which is downstairs and outside through a courtyard area to get a remote control for the TV and teabags as there was only 1. We didn't have breakfast as we stayed over for an early morning flight from Birmingham which was very handy being only 20 mins away. We had an evening meal which was Malaysian themed but unfortunately they ran out of my choice very early and I did settle for an alternative which was freshly cooked and tasty. The staff couldn't have been more helpful or friendly but the pub itself and rooms definitely need refinishing.

The owner was unaware of our booking as it hadn't gone through to them but problem was solved quickly.

So friendly and welcoming, a really cosy gem of a place. Will definitely be returning.

Staff very friendly, accommodating and helpful. Room was ok, cobwebs round the windows though, rest seemed clean. Water pump very loud and could be heard when other rooms were using it early in the morning. Decent budget option

Delay on showing us to our room due to staff serving at the busy bar. Friendly when shown to room. No bath towels due to broken tumble dryer. Meal in bar good service and friendly staff.

Exceptional friendly welcome. Rooms clean and priced correctly. Right on the canal 😁

When booking through Expedia write up stated ,breakfast was served up to 10am at a cost of £5 per head payable at hotel.The Dog and Doublet does not serve breakfast at any time. This would appear to be an error on the part of Expedia not having full knowledge of the hotel they are advertising,as we were attending a wedding locally it was an ideal place to have a good night's sleep and a breakfast before setting off for home but thanks to Expedia that was not going to happen.Get your facts right before advertising properties.

Room was dirty with cobwebs hanging from the ceiling, bathroom radiator was rusty, shower rail fell off wall as not secured, lots of black mould in the bathroom, and the amount of toenail clippings on the bathroom floor suggested it had not been cleaned.

The staff and pub were lovely and the food good. The accommodation was basic but clean, but for the one night it was fine.

Although a little tired in decoration I think this is acceptable for the price of our stay. Good value and a good location. Also the food in the pub was really good.

Really lovely staff and the check in experience was very pleasant. The room was just about acceptable in terms of cleanliness but the toilet was not clean and still had used paper in it. The room and the surroundings were very tired and beyond worn in some places, especially the carpet on the stairs which was very dirty. As there was no breakfast, we could not comment on it. It’s such a shame because the setting is quite pleasant and it could be a lovely place to visit.

Basic accommodation. Pros- Clean Comfortable bed and pillows Good TV Pub onsite Food available Towels provided Friendly staff Cons- Feels remote but as long as you have a car or canal boat its ok. Phone signal is not great. I had 3 and Vodaphone, affected calls and internet connection. No wifi Would I stay again? Yes, for the price paid. No, if the price point raised without an increase in facilites and decor standards. Comment to the owners - I'd happily come back to stay a5 the price point I paid, and would love to try the asian food on offer.

Arrived at 3pm to find the place closed with a steel shutter closed on the inside of the main door Pub had a scruffy exterior which when added to the lack of activity and no signs of life gave the impression it was abandoned. The fact it is isolated in the middle of nowhere didnt help either. A solo female traveller would have felt v vulnerable Even the taxi driver wasn't convinced it was a good idea to stay hereamdlnd hung around for 10 mins in case I needed him to drive me somewhere else. Peering through the windows on the canel side proved that rooms were made up and ready, if I could get into them After reading the fine print I called the contact number and after no reply at first I received a call back explaining that the pub wasn't open until 5pm on a Monday but accommodation could be reached by going through the 'Private No Access gate' and going through into the accommodation block Access to room via accommodation block acess looked tired and needed painting and a new carpet. Room itself was also dated and needed painting and a new carpet. It was small but functional. Bedroom furniture look dated Bathroom v small and v hot. Shower ok and water hot but sealant around shower tray showing signs of black mold and there was also debris around outside of shower tray. Room was overly hot when heating was on but cool when it wasn't and there wasnt a way to control the heating. Portable fan /cooler didn't work.Returned from my event around 10 to find pub shut and lockedup

love the friendly staff who are always helpful and the location is great

Very friendly staff, will stay again, lovely position next to the canal with boats passing by

En suite room. Everything you'd expect from an overnight stay. Would stay here again without any hesitation.

Really friendly and welcoming. Went an extra mile for us as we were running late. Will definitely come again. Thank you.

Hotel was nice, and staff friendly. Food in the pub was lovely too. Walls however very thin, guests in next room had their tv on until 5am which meant we didn't sleep very well as we could hear it.

Lovely olde world pub

Food way to expensive 2chicken burgers in baps £29.90 that’s a rip off ,no fault with everything else
